Was doing some night shooting in downtown Montgomery, AL. This is part of a 1800s fountain that is on the street that the capitol is on.

this is the one I get all the time.

Walk in the Wilderness park just down the street from my house.

Thought I would try a little night photography. This is a pretty dark place at night. The D3100 kicked it up to ASA 3200 and made it look like daytime.

I was at the local WalMart recently and noticed they had a 24 inch HP roll printer. I checked out the prices and say that they were dirt cheap. $10 for a 16 X 20 cheap. I thought it could not do anything other than waste $10 and less than an hour to see how they looked. I went this afternoon and...

Was on a 2 and 1/2 hour drive home and running late but did have just enough time to stop and shoot this before the cloud moved away. Would have love to have had enough time to try HDR on this shot.

In the deep South (USA) Football is King. Had our first view of our team today. Here is a photo With my new D3100 and a article about their #1 nation wide preseason ranking. RivalsHigh Rankings

Went downtown to take a few quick shots. Pretty much let the camera make to decisions to see what I got. Minor amount of PP on all three pics.

Got my D3100 back from service yesterday but was to late and raining to really test it (Also my wife and I were celebrating our 36th anniversary) Went out this afternoon and place test patterns for the D3100 and the L120 on a brick wall. In open shade but very bright light. DOF not an issue on...

I have been looking for a flash for my D3100 and the Nikon SB600 has been on my list but the price is high for just the casual use I would have for it. I just saw an ad for it for $199 and free shipping. Usually when something is to good to be true then it has a catch somewhere. Flashes - Buy...

While I am impatiently waiting for my D3100 to return from it's trip back to mother I thought I would post one of my wife's pictures she shot with her new Nikon Coolpix L120.

I have had my D3100 for several months and have thought most of the time that the pictures were soft. It showed up mostly in close ups. Someone here said it was probably just my monitor, so that gave me a good excuse to go out and buy a new 22inch LED monitor with 50,000,000 to 1 contrast. Still...

I did have a little fun shooting on my vacation. I was shooting waterfalls in the smokey mountains and ran across these kids diving off a rock.

I loved this shot when I saw it. The only problem I have is sharpness. I have not been happy with an close focus shot that I have had. I make sure that I am far enough away that I can go in and out of focus on the shot, I have shot at F22, I think I have covered all the bases and I just don't...

Had not thought of that. One nice thing that I did learn was just how good the little built in flash on the D3100 is. My late afternoon photos had just the right amount of fill and later on that evening after dark I started backing up just to see how far the flash would work. A lot further than...

My son got married this weekend and the bride picked the photographer. I had no say in it so I kept my mouth shut. I arrived and was glad to see that the photographers were at least shooting Nikon. The main photographer was shooing a D40 and the assistance was shooting a D3000. Not what I would...

I had the occasion to shoot with the built in flash on the D3100 this weekend and was very pleased with the results but it left me wanting more. I priced the Nikon flashes and found out they are very high. Anyone have any advice on aftermarket flashes? Also I have several Olympus flashes from...

Trying out Lightroom 3 and not sure what I am doing yet. Are there any good guides online?

One last one

I have been playing with them today and a little last night and I see that they are a little overexposed. I think F16 at 2 seconds will be what I try next time. This one was edited in Photoshop and the brightness was decreased and the contrast was increased to get the blacks black.
